Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y] usb: gadget: f_fs: initialize reset_work at allocation time
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 09:55:05 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260720135505.1350249-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026071457-deepness-vixen-ba68@gregkh>

From: Tyler Baker <tyler.baker@oss.qualcomm.com>

[ Upstream commit 3137b243c93982fe3460335e12f9247739766e10 ]

ffs_fs_kill_sb() unconditionally calls cancel_work_sync() on
ffs->reset_work when a functionfs instance is unmounted:

	ffs_data_reset(ffs);
	cancel_work_sync(&ffs->reset_work);

However ffs->reset_work is only ever initialized via INIT_WORK() in
ffs_func_set_alt() and ffs_func_disable(), and only on the
FFS_DEACTIVATED path. That state is reached solely by ffs_data_closed()
when the instance is mounted with the "no_disconnect" option, so for the
common case (no "no_disconnect", or mounted and unmounted without ever
being deactivated) reset_work is never initialized.

ffs_data_new() allocates the ffs_data with kzalloc_obj() and does not
initialize reset_work, and ffs_data_reset()/ffs_data_clear() do not touch
it either, so reset_work.func is left NULL. cancel_work_sync() on such a
work then trips the WARN_ON(!work->func) guard in __flush_work():

  WARNING: kernel/workqueue.c:4301 at __flush_work+0x330/0x360, CPU#3: umount
  Call trace:
   __flush_work
   cancel_work_sync
   ffs_fs_kill_sb [usb_f_fs]
   deactivate_locked_super
   deactivate_super
   cleanup_mnt
   __cleanup_mnt
   task_work_run
   exit_to_user_mode_loop
   el0_svc

On older kernels cancel_work_sync() on a zero-initialized work struct was
a silent no-op, which hid the missing initialization.

Initialize reset_work once in ffs_data_new() so it is always valid for
the lifetime of the ffs_data, and drop the now-redundant INIT_WORK()
calls from the two deactivation paths.

[ dropped the ffs_func_disable hunk since 6.6 predates the disable-body split and routes disable through ffs_func_set_alt, so removing the single lazy INIT_WORK there covers both paths ]
